A new study for COVID-19 vaccine antibody testing is being led by the transplant team at Johns Hopkins. The purpose of this observational research study is to determine COVID-19 antibody levels in transplant recipients who get the COVID-19 vaccine. The study does not provide the vaccine or offer guidance as to whether or not one should receive a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.If participants have received or will be receiving a vaccine and are interested in the study, they will remotely collect blood sample (from their home) before vaccination when possible, and at sequential time points post-immunization.
